UNSPSC 10317957: Fresh cut psittacinum hippeastrum

Fresh cut bloom of the psittacinum variety of hippeastrum

UNSPSC 10317957 Fresh cut psittacinum hippeastrum is a Commodity code that encompasses fresh cut ornamental flowers, specifically hippeastrum varieties, procured by state and local governments for landscaping, beautification, and horticultural applications. Recent state and local activity shows modest but genuine demand for fresh cut flowers and related plant materials across multiple issuing body types, though the code sees limited direct solicitation for this specific flower variety alone.

The issuing bodies soliciting under related plant and flower procurement include education service centers (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas), county parks and recreation divisions (Los Alamos County, New Mexico), and municipal purchasing departments (City of Dallas, Texas). Recent opportunities show state and local governments buying hanging flower baskets with associated nursery services (Los Alamos County RFP26-55, response deadline June 4, 2026), plants for municipal purposes (City of Dallas Informal Solicitation 215260, response deadline February 3, 2026), and educational supplies through cooperative purchasing vehicles with estimated spend reaching $40.677 billion over two years (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative EDACT2628, response deadline July 30, 2026). Los Alamos County requires contractors to hold a valid nursery dealer license and specified vendor qualifications including three prior references for similar services. Geographic activity in recent opportunities concentrates in Texas and New Mexico, with Texas showing repeat municipal purchasing (Dallas) and regional cooperative activity (Region 7 ESC serving multiple school districts), while New Mexico shows county-level landscaping procurement emphasizing local and resident business preferences under state law.
